MUMUS: And Baby Makes Four

Feb 07, 2010 13:14

Literally just finished this one like 5 minutes ago.  The last couple days have been crazy and I haven't had a second to really think about the story because I've been exhausted.  Then I over slept and I knew I had to get this finished before the Superbowl started and I've done it! Sweet.  Now I can go help out a little upstairs, watch the game then do homework once the game ends.  Enjoy!!

By the way, this is a sequel to a Zekelor short I wrote in 2008 called Dinner For Two.

Setting/Event: sequel to "dinner for two" by chanel; Zeke and Taylor are expecting another baby and their daughter (Penny) is extremely angry
Random Stuff:
- Ultrasound
- baby crib
- VERY angry toddler (their daughter Penny)

Pregnant, and by her own description “as big as a house,” Taylor McKessie-Baylor’s second pregnancy was turning out to be easier than her first-knock on wood. She and her husband, Zeke, both felt more prepared for baby number #2, which an ultrasound had shown was a second daughter.

When it came to work, Zeke had put people in place at the restaurant they owned so he would be able to help out with the house work and looking after their two-year-old daughter, Penny. Taylor’s own bosses, Lucy Bolton and Cynthia Danforth, were making things easy for her by allowing her to work from home now that she was in her final weeks of pregnancy and had brought in a new receptionist so Taylor could work from home as long as she needed or wanted to with the new baby.

Even Penny had seemed excited about the “baby in tummy.” She had helped Taylor unwrap presents at her baby shower and had helped put small things away in the new nursery. Then it happened and Penny’s whole attitude about the new baby changed.

Taylor had learned she was pregnant six weeks after her birthday, just in time for Zeke’s birthday. She had planned to surprise him with dinner like he had done for her, but when he got home from work the night she found out, he looked at her and said: “You’re pregnant, aren’t you?”

She had nodded with tears in her eyes and a big smile on her lips. He had forgotten about being tired, picked her up and spun her around. Setting her feet back on the ground, he pressed his lips against hers and drew her closer.

With Penny fast asleep in her pink and white crib, they had gone straight to their bedroom. Once there, he undressed her and she undressed him then they laid down on their bed. He covered her body in kisses, paying extra attention to her belly where their baby was growing. When they were both ready, he slid his manhood into her and made slow, passionate love to her.

In the days that followed the news, Taylor and Zeke made a list of things that needed to get done before the baby came. Top on the list was getting Penny potty-trained. They started right away and within a couple months, they had Penny using her potty chair regularly with a few accidents. Now, nearly 8 months after they started, she was experiencing very few accidents and able to take her self to the bathroom.

Another big item on their list was getting her moved from the crib to a toddler bed, but unlike the potty-training they had waited until the last minute to make that change.

On the first Saturday of her eighth month of pregnancy, Taylor and Zeke took Penny to the furniture store for the sole purpose of letting her pick out her new bed. They had expected Penny to go for something themed or colorful, but to their surprise she had gone straight to a white bed with a slatted headboard and footboard that looked like a miniature version of their bed. They had picked up new blankets as well, getting her a pink and brown bedding set that matched the pink on her walls.

They went home with the plan to put Penny’s new bed together and move the crib into the new baby’s room since Zeke had the day off, but they ran into an unforeseen obstacle: Penny’s love for her crib.

Taylor had been down stairs making sandwiches for lunch when she heard Penny’s scream, “MY BED!! MY BED!!” Dropping what she was doing, Taylor hurried up the stairs and found Penny clinging to the railing of the crib with tears rolling down her cheeks.

“Penny, come help mommy make sandwiches,” Taylor suggested as Zeke watched from the side.

“No, my bed,” Penny shook her head.

Sighing, Taylor glanced around the room trying to think of how to help Penny see that the baby needed the crib. Her eyes settled on Penny’s favorite baby doll and the little crib for it. She grabbed the baby doll crib and brought it over to Penny.

“Penny, who sleeps in this crib?” She asked.

Penny’s eyes flickered over to her dad then back at Taylor before she replied, “Baby.”

“Why don’t you sleep in this bed?” Taylor asked.

“Me big girl,” Penny replied.

“Where do big girl’s sleep?” Taylor asked.

“My bed,” Penny said, taking hold of the crib again.

“Nope,” Taylor shook her head. “Cribs are for babies, big girl’s sleep in big girl beds.”

“Me baby,” Penny said.

Taylor forced a smile on to her face as she let out a sigh. Everything had gone so easily until this point and now they were at a stand still.

“Pen-pen,” Zeke said as he came over to them. “I think your baby is too big for her bed.” He brought over the doll then pretended to put her in the bed, but left it so her feet were hanging out over the edge. “I think she needs a bigger bed.” He started to set her on the toddler bed he had put together.

“No! Baby!” Penny exclaimed.

“So where should she sleep?” Zeke asked, playing dumb.

“My bed,” Penny told him.

“Here?” Zeke carefully laid the dolly in the crib then lifted Penny up so she could see the doll. “I think she likes it.”

Penny nodded and rested her head on her dad’s shoulder.

That night, Penny slept in her big girl bed and the next morning, she discovered she didn’t have to wait for them to let her out of bed. It took another week, but, finally, they were able to get the crib into the nursery and Penny helped push.

Two weeks later, Taylor went into labor and gave birth to a baby girl who they named Rachel. Penny came to the hospital to visit with her grandparents and, with tears in her eyes, Taylor watched Penny hold Rachel.

A few days later, Penny went with Zeke to the hospital to bring Taylor and Rachel home. During the whole drive, Penny watched Rachel like a hawk, not letting her eyes leave her little sister.

When they got home, Zeke helped Penny out of her carseat then got Rachel’s carseat out of the car. Taylor held Penny’s hand as they went into the house. Then they followed Zeke upstairs where he put a sleeping Rachel into her crib.

Zeke wrapped his arm around Taylor’s waist as they watched Penny pull her stool over, climb on it and watch Rachel sleep.

“Who ever said wishes don’t come true?” He whispered to Taylor as they watched their girls.
